I heat embossed the flower and leaf, then used a brush to paint inside the flower with water, added purple brusho crystals. The centers of the flowers ended up with a golden hue when dry, so I decided to use Inkagold as a highlight and leaf color. Stamped and punched sentiment. Smudged edges of sentiment label with gelato and inkagold. I used scortape on the kraft panel and sentiment because they were so warped from the water.
My inspiration for this card came from the purple flower wooden button, https://www.etsy.com/listing/8149053...nted%2Bbuttons and leaf charm, https://www.etsy.com/listing/8018324...2Bleaf%2Bcharm.

WOW! Your card reminds me so much of the 4th button on the second row - but with your very own creative flair and style! Thank you for being so deeply inspired!

A WOW!!! Love your watercolored flowers. To me that is the best kind of watercolor.... that you can tell it was once wet and now has a lovely transparent quality.....not just "coloring book" coloring done with watercolor paints. Stunning card!
